Lead Analytics Engineer
London (1 day a week in office)
Up to £85,000 plus up to 30% bonus
An established consumer business with a strong online presence is hiring a Lead Analytics Engineer to shape how data is modelled, governed, and consumed across the wider business. Real ownership, real technical leadership, and a modern stack to build on.
The Role
You'd sit within the Analytics Engineering team, working closely with the Analytics Engineering Manager but operating with a lot of autonomy. The role is domain led, meaning you'd take ownership across areas like customer, commercial, and operations, shaping the definition and delivery of analytics engineering solutions end to end.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Not a line management role, but a genuine technical leadership one. You'd set the bar for modelling, testing, documentation, and governance, mentor the wider team, and be the person other engineers look to on the harder architectural calls.
